<p dir="auto">The problem is, that neither the Wallet connection nor the Flow connection works between iPhone and Mac.</p>
<p dir="auto">Wallet:<br />
One I scan the barcode with the iPhone I can see a spinner-animation in the desktop browser, but the phone tells me "<em>Connection error. Please check your network connection and try again</em>"</p>

<p dir="auto">Flow:<br />
Once I scan the barcode with the iPhone, the desktop browser does not show any reaction (the barcode stays visible). The phone displays the same error message after a few seconds: "<em>Connection error. Please check your network connection and try again</em>"</p>

<p dir="auto">I've tested this on 2 different Macs, and both give the same result. Both computers (and the phone) have an active internet connection and all services are working correctly.</p>
<p dir="auto">I even set up a new WLAN connection and connected all devices to that, but got the same result.</p>
<p dir="auto">The built-in firewall on my MacBook is disabled, there's no other security software or virus scanner on my machines, and I've logged into my Opera account on the desktop browser.</p>
<p dir="auto">OSX version is 10.15.6<br />
iOS version is 13.6.1<br />
I'm located in Austria, EU and not using any VPN</p>
<p dir="auto">Any ideas? I'm not sure if it's a problem on the desktop or the mobile device.</p>
<p dir="auto">I would love to see the connection logs. Maybe it's something obvious that I miss. → Can I find Operas connection- or error-log somewhere?</p>

Maybe the recent iOS update was the key, or something changed in the API/Opera.</p>
<p dir="auto">Flow is working, but the wallet still behaves identical (endless spinning wheel on the Mac, error message on the iPhone).<br />
Since I do not plan to use the wallet in the near future, I will not debug this issue in more detail for now...</p>

<p dir="auto">On my MacBook, I've stared the <code>Console</code> app and searched for errors on both my Mac and the iPhone.</p>
<p dir="auto">It turned out, that the request never reaches the MacBook, because the flow-API rejected the request with <a href="https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTTP/Status/400" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow ugc">status code 400</a></p>
<p dir="auto">Here's a screenshot of the log entries I found:</p>
